I have personally never met Ben Schroeder, but from what I have herd about him, He is like the nicest person. That is, the nicest person you ever seen kick some ass! Back in 1990, I met Jeff Phillips and he told me a story about Ben. Jeff was on the NSA pro tour with Ben back in the early nineties. Jeff and Ben were flying on a major airline across to, or from some contest in Europe (probably Munster), when some asshole passenger started giving a stewardess shit when she had to tell him to quite down. Apparently, Ben casually went over and told the guy to mellow out. When that didn’t work, he casually proceeded to fuck that guy up. Jeff told me that the passengers applauded when Ben finished regulating the guy and the crew of the plane was all on his nuts after that, giving him free drinks or whatever. Amazing! Ben skates just like he lives. Having fun while going mental! Pay attention kids! This is how it's done!

You know what? I gave some false ass info on Ben Schroeder on that last post. Ben is still an amazing skateboarder , but ex-pro Steve Douglas was in fact the regulator of said asshole on the plane flight. I'm fuckin half retarded.Everybody makes mistakes. No disrespect, just wanna tell the story right.
